Our Admissions Counselor is a social worker, not a salesperson.

Bronston Carroll

President

Bronston will be one of the first faces you see as you enter Thrive Memory Care of Corpus Christi. He offers oversight and leadership to our community. Bronston is known for his great smile, unwavering integrity, and extraordinary ability to connect with people.

Bronston earned his undergraduate degree in Political Science from the US Naval Academy where he played running back for the football team. Bronston received the Cooke Memorial Award at graduation as the athlete who best exemplified outstanding character and leadership. He then went on to earn a Masters in Global Leadership from the University of San Diego School of Business.

He most recently earned the Master Certification in lean management and six-sigma from Villanova University. Bronston served his country for six years as a Naval Officer and afterwards went to work at Amazon as an Area Manager. These two experiences greatly contributed to shaping Bronston’s paradigm of servant leadership and the importance of building a customer/resident centric culture.

He is a gifted teacher and actively volunteers in a variety of areas. His most recent volunteer activities included doing missionary work in India and Thailand with Christian non-profit organizations.

Clarissa Silmon

Resident Wellness

It is nearly impossible to miss the sweet and calming presence Clarissa adds to any room she enters.

Clarissa is C.A.L.M. (Certified Assisted Living Manager) certified and serves as the Wellness Director here at Thrive Memory Care. She has worked with residents and families dealing with memory loss for almost two decades. Her medical background allows her to relate to families well as she has significant experience from pediatrics to geriatrics.

When you meet Clarissa you will be in great company in any discussion regarding gardening, music or movies. When she is not with us at the community you will likely find her at the beach with her friends and family. Her love for the beach is what actually drew her back to Corpus Christi. While she may not get in the water, she loves making sure her family and friends enjoy themselves as she is a caregiver by nature.

We asked her to summarize her philosophy on care and she shared the following: “My care philosophy is to never forget that each resident has a story. Each resident is an individual so I lead my team to provide individualized, person-centered care to anyone battling memory loss. I lead our team to do this through building real relationships. We build relationships by developing new memories and reawakening old ones through music, and sensory stimulation. In short, I believe you can only give really great care_if you really do care.”
